Recycling of material and technological resources: current status and prospects

The construction sector is one of the leading areas in waste generation. Every year, the growth of construction, reconstruction and dismantling in the country increases, which negatively affects the environment. This article discusses the problems and prospects for the development of the construction waste recycling. The methods of evaluation and scientific analysis are applied in research. The authors present statistical data on the waste volume, and classify the materials obtained from the processing of construction waste. A term, secondary raw material and technological resource, is proposed for the purpose of planning and managing construction waste and improving the efficiency of construction product manufacturing.
